After noon.

Empress Zhong had just woken up from her afternoon nap.

A head palace maid who had just come to serve her hurriedly walked in from outside.

She looked anxious and flustered.

“Your Majesty, bad news. Guangyun and the others you sent to Qinghe Hall have all been executed by His Majesty!”

Empress Zhong was pressing her glabella to wake up.

When she heard this, her heart skipped a beat.

She quickly looked up and asked with a frown, “What happened?”

“This servant asked around and found out that Guangyun was ordered to feed Prince Shen medicine, but he was rejected by Prince Shen.

“Then for some reason, Princess Yaoguang and Marquis Yongye, who live in the side hall of Qinghe Hall, meddled in other people’s business and went to teach Guangyun lesson!

“Later on, His Majesty was alarmed. His Majesty went to Qinghe Hall and did a brief interrogation. Not long later, someone saw the imperial guards dragging Guangyun away!

“When more news came, Guangyun and the people you sent had already been executed!”

Empress Zhong suddenly stood up, her face filled with shock and anger. “There’s actually such a thing? His Majesty actually didn’t care about my face this time?”

In the past, whenever she had arguments with Consort Lu…

Although Ling Tianyin was biased towards Consort Lu, he wouldn’t be too disrespectful to Empress Zhong.

Even if he had any strict instructions, he would only tell her in private.

This time, Ling Tianyin’s actions were undoubtedly a resounding slap to Empress Zhong’s face in public!

Seeing that Empress Zhong’s expression was abnormally bad, the palace maid braced herself and continued, “His Majesty even ordered that in the future, you have to personally report Prince Shen’s matters to him before you can make a decision.”

Empress Zhong immediately raged. “I’m thinking about Ling Shen’s health. It’s fine if this child doesn’t care about my good intentions, but why is His Majesty also indulging him?!

“How much have I sacrificed for this harem? How can His Majesty ignore my feelings like this?!”

The palace maid was afraid that the Empress’s anger would be directed at her.

She trembled and advised, “Your Majesty, don’t hurt your phoenix body from anger!

“All of this must be Princess Yaoguang and Marquis Yongye spoiling things. Moreover, everyone outside says that Consort Lu is a demonic consort, bewitching His Majesty’s mind!

“They must have done this on purpose. They instigated Prince Shen to cause such a commotion just to let everyone know that His Majesty doesn’t care about Your Majesty!”

Empress Zhong’s nails dug into her palms, her phoenix hairpin swayed from her anger.

She slowly closed her eyes and took a few deep breaths before finally calming down.

Empress Zhong knew that if she wanted to completely take down Consort Lu, it was useless for her to be angry now.

She had to think of a way!

Her eyes darted around. “Did His Majesty send someone to check the medicine?”

The palace maid thought for a while in confusion before shaking her head. “This servant didn’t see His Majesty looking for an imperial physician to go to Qinghe Hall. I don’t think he has checked before.”

This was good!

Empress Zhong heaved a sigh of relief.

She had secretly gotten someone to add a herb to the prescription given to Ling Shen.

It would often make people feel tired and sleepy, having the effect of sleeping soundly.

Although it wasn’t any poison, if Ling Tianyin were to notice it, the Empress wouldn’t be able to explain herself.

Empress Zhong pressed her forehead and said in a faint voice, “If he doesn’t want to drink it, so be it. I’m not his biological mother after all. I was doing this for his own good, but ended up treated like a heartless person.

“Consort Lu dotes on her child too much. She spoiled Lingshen so much that he’s lawless. He already knows how to make a scene at such a young age.”

Empress Zhong said meaningfully, “If I can take care of him, I’ll definitely be able to correct his bad habits.”

The palace maid didn’t dare to reply for a moment.

Empress Zhong leaned slightly against the chair, her phoenix hairpin swaying ruthlessly.

It lit up the dark expression in her eyes..
